Straight up, high school hype aside, this would be like Larry Drew II declaring eligibility for the draft.

Selby, the No. 1 overall player in the class of 2010 according to Rivals.com, had a disappointing season at KU. He missed the first nine games of the season due to a Suits In Indianapolis' suspension.Then he sustained an injury in January that hampered the rest of his season. In the end, Shelby averaged just 7.9 points, 2.2 assists and 2.2 rebounds.

"I want to thank all the ku fans who supported me through everything and all the fans who doubting me. I will miss the the fieldhouse. But it's a new journey in my life now. I will not return to Kansas next year. Making my dream a reality. NBA baby."

Spoken like a true college kid…or Dick Vitale, we aren’t sure which.

Selby, a Baltimore native (should have been a Terp?), is projected to be picked No. 27 overall by draftexpress.com – whoever they are.

Now this can work.There are guys in the NBA who didn’t have great freshmen college seasons and who are quality NBA players.According to the hoop blog, The Dagger, Derrick Favors or Avery Bradley are two such good players who accomplished little in college.

We believe this as we have never heard of either one and thus consulted said Dagger for info on this type of transaction.

WHERE IN THE WORLD...?

The way it is...

The way it was...

TAH DAMN GOOD CAUSE OF THE MONTH

NORTHERN HAITI HOPE FOUNDATION: After our recent trip to Haiti, we vowed to do more to help. Clean water is a critical issue for all Haitians. It's particularly problematic for those in rural areas. For $2,000 to $5,000 we can build a new well in a rural village as part of a program facilitated by the St. Barthelemy School and the Warrenton, VA Rotary. Send your donation to Wells of Health and Hope, c/o GPetty-VTA, 38 Garrett Street, Warrenton, VA 20186 and keep your eye on T.A.H. for progress reports. Thanks! CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR MORE INFO.
